Summary Presents an analysis of the persuasive artistry of Isaiah 18, such as how Isa 18 is designed in order to persuade an ancient audience. Pursuing the analysis from various angles: the textual design, the motifs, and the rhetoric of the text, this book shows how the various strophes within each stanza of Isa 18 relate to one another.
